Box 330, Congers, NY 10920-9894 www.copyright.com informal seating. But most of the offices have just the office basics — a desk with phone set and an ergonomic chair. Steve Shea, founder of six-year-old Mag- istri Insurance and Financial Services LLC, which markets long-term care and life insur- ance and annuities, says Regus suits his need for space to meet with clients outside their homes or on the phone. As a yearly member, he pays $550 a month for space for he and his assistant, plus $170 a month for phone line. Shea figures he saves $400 to $500 a month over his previous older, Class B space in Wethers- field. Plus, he shaved 10 minutes off his commute from his East Windsor home. "We just like the open feel of the place,'' he said. Regus' advertising is minimal, relying mainly on word of mouth. "We do a lot of advertising through Craig- slist,'' Hews said. "We do a lot of work with local brokers.'' Tapping the office-broker network offers two advantages, Regus officials say. One is that brokers tend to refer to Regus tenant prospects who are too small or whose needs are too short term to suit landlords of larger, more expensive office space. Regus pays bro- kers a referral fee. Another is that landlords of buildings where Regus centers are housed sometimes benefit when a user reaches the point where it needs bigger or longer-term quarters for its operations and staff. They sometimes wind up as permanent tenants in the same building, Paitschel said. Connecticut is high on Regus' list, she added. "It's always been a strong market,'' Paitschel said. "Connecticut has always done very well. Also, the reason we're expanding is that clients ask for it. Clients have been asking for an alternative to downtown Hartford.'' n Tell your story — and reach business decison makers! Proud of the role your company plays in helping drive CT's economy?
